If you live near a Blockbuster and can’t buy stuff off the Playstation Store because you don’t have a credit card you may want to pop down and buy yourself a Playstation Network Card. Remember if you don’t have a credit card, you need to buy a PSN card otherwise you won’t be able to buy WipEout HD.

The official LittleBigPlanet trailer is now online. Each time a new video is released for the game it looks better and better and it’s currently good news for the UK as they get to play the game five days earlier than expected.

Welcome to LittleBigPlanet a world of infinite possibilities, where imagination becomes reality and the powers of creation are firmly in your hands. Coming to PlayStation®3 on 20th October 2008.

LittleBigPlanet is a new, ground-breaking PlayStation®3 (PS3™) game, combining an amazing platform adventure with a huge social community. There are places to explore, creative resources to collect and puzzles to solve all requiring a combination of brains and teamwork.

But thats only the beginning. The fun really starts when you begin to build your own LittleBigPlanet. Using an advanced physics system which takes full advantage of the PS3s power, players have the ability to design, shape and build both objects and entire locations for others to view and play, bringing together for the first time the three biggest elements in gaming – play, create, share. Even the games central character Sackboy is customisable.

When your world is ready, you can invite anyone within the LittleBigPlanet community on the PlayStation®Network to come and explore your creations, or go and explore everybody elses – its a brilliant way to meet some new sack-buddies!

LittleBigPlanet, already garnering plaudits as one of the most hotly anticipated titles in video game history – is one of the years biggest releases. This October LittleBigPlanet is going to change the world of gaming forever

We’ve been posting a lot of Dead Space video lately simply because we feel it deserves the attention. It’s a great looking game.

Engineer Isaac Clarke is sent to repair the Ishimura, an immense mining ship, but he arrives to find a living nightmare—the ship is a floating bloodbath, the crew unspeakably mutilated and infected by an ancient alien scourge.

Sony has released the 2.43 firmware update but nobody knows what exactly it does. This is what it could have done. Playstation Lifestyle has posted a short tutorials on how to get into Life with Playstation. Here’s how.

Load up Folding@Home and it will tell you that an update is available, proceed with your download, and restart Folding@Home.

The Folding@Home icon has been replaced with Life With PlayStation

[UPDATE] It is only available for some people.

Sony just released firmware 2.43. The firmware brings nothing new, and it’s to help with stability issues. You are not prompted to download it, so you can still log in the PlayStation Network. But if you would like to download it, you can do so by going to Settings, then System Update. Now it’s a region specific update, meaning that Japan is the only country that has to download it. If we hear of anything else, we will let you all know.

In a post by PS3 Fanboy, a press release states that Little Big Planet in the UK will be coming out on the 24th of October. That’s 5 days before the rest of Europe will be getting it, and 3 days after North America gets it. The game is close to releasing just a month away. I can feel the excitement within me rising.

New details have emerged regarding voice acting in Sony’s upcoming title God of War III. Translated by Google, here’s what ps3-sense has to say.

God Of War 3 scriptwriters Marianne Krawczyk and inspreker DB Cooper last Monday have talked about bad dialogues (and the making thereof) in games. This should dramatically improve according to these people, because it may be a good story at all to smithereens help.

About God of War III was the following said they want the game not on the website AudioAtrocities, a sign that they are working very hard to listen to the audio in the game in tiptop order.

Marianne Krawczyk knew there still to add that the script of GoW3 no fewer than 120 pages long. Such a long script is beautiful, but the story really comes into its own when there is figuring out exactly how and why it is said, so the insprekers are much better able to live.

Activision’s CEO Robert Kotick has stated during the Activision Blizzard Analyst Day that the Playstation 3 will last at least eight years.

“I think there’s a long life ahead of us, we’re in year eight of PlayStation 2 and when you look at PlayStation 3 technically we’re likely to see at least eight years’ success.”

This is showing that more and more game developers are supporting the console for the long term and thats a good sign.
